We currently have two hyper heat units at home in West Alton. One 18K unit heats the DR + kitchen area of 692 sq ft with some heat going up the stairway. One 12K units heats the MB area of 432 sq ft with vaulted ceiling.

With both running our total household electric bill was about $240/month for last Jan, Feb and Mar. No oil heat was used in those areas.

We have a pellet stove that heats the 336 sq ft LR so no oil heat is used on 1st floor. However as we plan to be away a few weeks mid winter an additional 12K hyper heat unit is to be installed in the LR for when we are away.

We will be able to control all three units remotely by apps on our phones and iPad.

We do have 3 zone oil heat but only run one zone that covers 2 bedrooms.
